Dear Stan:

Thank you very much for your good istter of the
Zlet instant. i should have replied sooner. Your

employees are certainly doing your share with a bang.
Pardon me for questioning this point.

However, I em wondering if the Commonwealth
Theatre Corporation has subsuribed. I had the cart be-
fore the horse. I thought this was the subscription of
the corporation and not of the employees. All the cor-
porations are subsoribing rather freely, and don't you
think that it would be a good idea for the Commonwealth,
as @ corporation, to do their stuff?

“With kindest personal regards, I am

Dear "Doc":

At a recent Rotary meeting you suggested that I give you
a report of my activity on this present bond drive,

‘Our corporation made a bond purchase of $5,000. My ine
dividual purchase was $500. Every employee in our or-
ganization increased his payroll deduction 10% making a
total of 20%. ,Fifteen employees are putting their en-
tire Septemodtrtiito bonds and thirty-five other employees
are purchasing a bond in addition to their 20%. If every
business would do as much the Douglas County quota would

be a cinch.

Harry Wareham, State Chairman of the Motion Picture Indus-
try, has informed me that our entire campaign on our Bond
Premiere has topped anything in the state to-date and

there has been some forty key cities that have submitted
material to him. This gives me some degree of satisfaction
since I worked night and day to get the job done,

Incidentally, I spent $187.45 in good hard money on all
types of advertising to put over the Premiere for the
C8USe.

Kindest personal regards,

Sincerely,

bir

Stan Schwehn

Dear Doctor Allen:

It seems desirable to get the members of the Special
Names Committee together for a meeting to check up results
and plan further action.

We are, therefore, calling a meeting of the Committee
for Tuesday forenoon at ten o’clock, at the Chamber of
Commerce. We will appreciate it very much if all the members
of the Committee can be present. Several suggestions have
been made that might produce further sales,

Thanking you for your | co-operation,
